I don't see anything about audio changes in that. Just wondering what update log you are refering to. Thx!

Local change log. Every update you will get a text file with listing of files that has been changed on your computer.
Barnacle data is awesome and well done!
But just a reminder for any barnacle-hunters out there, we're working from a limited set of samples. The data ranges we have are not absolutes, just the currently-known values. We should be careful not to limit our searches to the known ranges, or we may end up with a complete misconception of all possibilities.
So much this. Perhaps if people are dead set on using current values as guides the sheet should be colored not based on the absolute limits as set by our current (very small number) of data points but colored based on a standard deviation or two off the mean?
Anyone know Fungi? Got it in my head (since the Devonian period thing I mentioned) that Barnacles and UAs are like fungi and their spores. So thought ramble on the "Baby Barnacle" theory.
Check out a nifty picture
The pegs are sterigmata, the big grey thing is called a basidium. Bigger more educational picture is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterigma#/media/File:Basidie-2.jpg
Which if you stick the Basidium underground and have a big protrusion in the middle you get something that looks like a barnacle site. What's above ground is the Sterigmata spikes and growing on those are the UA looking spore things. I wish we could do a proper excavation on barnacles and see if there'd be a proper underground network of weird.
MB hinted at an origin "I'm afraid not - the nebula that they can be found in relates to their origin and I can't talk about that." So there is an origin to this stuff, but what bugs me is the shell. Call out to this awesome site made by Entim : http://entim.no-ip.org/ed/uarepository/shell . If Barnacles and UAs act like fungi and spores there should be a continuous spread of them. But there's not. The set up indicates a short moment of UA production then it stops. That is assuming UAs travel in a linear and detectable fashion. They could be instantly transmitted away from the barnacle planets, which all the barnacle planets have been in the center of the shell so far and UAs become more common in the shell over time. So have they been constantly producing them for the past half year?
In conclusion. I dunno. Could be just coincidences. There is an origin. There is a hollow sphere of UAs, and the center is peppered with barnacles. UAs sound like space whales, Barnacles look like in-organic growths, and the scientist went missing next to a black hole that formed when our planet first had spores. And all this appeared within months. Feel like I'm looking a math problem and stuck one step away from the obvious solution.
Or maybe they aren't related at all, maybe the UAs and barnacles are two opposing forces. One tries to devour everything around it, the other trying to sate the hunger. Maybe UAs started pointing to Merope, because they all detected a sudden appearance of Meta-Alloys there? It could be the Center of Mass for Barnacle locations.

Heres a useful site with permit locked systems in Nebulae:

cheers! will head out there later tonight!
Like fungi huh? You could even say they are fungus like or Mycoid.
Like the famous INRA Mycoid that was developed from a civilian mycoid, that was used to dissolve specific elements in metal alloys.
Dodgy Science with a hint of beer or three.
Slightly odd thing IRL made me think, On Teamspeak with wingman, beer nearby , phone near, Coms problem. Signal Interference reported by wingman.
What type of static? morse like thing,confirmed,more like static and data.
checking for possible causes. Mobile phone next to Mic wire, obvious , moved away from wire and cured problem.
UA - morse like thing when nearby picked up by our ships,sound is transmited to our ships like we are the mic, therefore the UA is a mobile phone
Phones have 12 buttons, 0-9 and * #
UA's have twelve canisters, now how do we dial it up ? and who do we call . lol..
Barnacles ?? must be phone masts. thats why all the UA stay in the shell, else they wont get mobile signals.
Barnacle marking, well thats the network provider. haha

they must be magic mushrooms because fungi wont grow in a vacuum. maybe it is the mycoid virus after it has bonded in a strange way with the alien tec and is able to surround itself with a force field allowing it to survive in the vacuum of space?
great idea i love it
Very cool ! I have just been plugging around various Nebula... I found a beacon yesterday ....
Thanks for the info Han, I plan to "listen to them" again on my next game session! (Tomorrow)
I'm at 35.6166, 32.0111 on A B 1 B at AIAM pointing nose toward 180 degrees but have been reversing the SRV at 1mph or however slow this thing goes with the intent of passing between the defence turrets which seemed to work
I've passed along the edge of the defence perimiter and the total appears to be two defence turrets and two sentries
My weapons were turned off while doing this and nobody fired upon me
There's what appear to be a bunch of pylons or groupings of cellular communications towers inside the perimiter wall
My whoo-whoos, blippers, clickers and sweepers are going crazy in the scanner's sound effects department (music still off).
Do you think there could be some technetium in there?
Refreshments are on me now that I know how to balance a yoke of water buckets on my shoulders.
Now do I dummy up and continue reversing off down the exit canal or am I the delivery system, in which case I'm supposed to fire myself into the exhaust slot?
No time for jokes now, the yolks are on me team and the folks at the yokes need a decision.
I'm running on standard fuel in solo mode at the moment but could switch to open, and make a rush for the pylon things that are in the perimiter zone.
Do we have a kill order or a thrill order?
Please advise, over.

I was out there when this all broke and have been meaning to go back ever since. As you say there are planets that fit the current criteria and even if there aren't any barnacles it's worth it for the view, gorgeous system:

Just passed along by the Capitol and a turret is mounted over the North entrance...
Six multi-cannister pylons by the Lions mouth (currently heading South)
Just passed a bunker which looks similar to the one I saw at Pavlou Keep, about to turn right
I love the laser light show those sentry scanners have

I surveyed the planets in T. Tauri, albeit briefly. The observations are in the sheet - they didn't feel "right"
I think I was still in shock at the fact T Tauri doesn't have a T Tauri star. It's bad enough that the swines troll you by looking scoopable if you haven't disco scanned them but that was taking their stellar trolling to a whole new level.
Now heading West as axes are probably being ground to the right of me
The weather behind my computer screen is whet but I promise a blood test will show that I'm not stoned
Heading North, looking for Teal'c while sounds like welding tools, doors and bangs are taking place. Bring orangey cakes! Michael needs his victuals!
It looks like the six pylons are mining rigs, based on a previous base I visited.
Welding now sounds like rain

So what now, gang?
Do I knock on the door and roll on in, while what sounds like propellors are spinning all around me keep spraying me with watery sounds or do I call in Annie the supership to do a flyover?
Here's my current standings, if you wish to place bets now (although I'd advise the guys down South not to place any wagers; it's not like I know the game algorithms for this and I'm currently running Solo.
If I go Open, I could even lose the instance, entirely
I eagerly await suggestions as to my next course of action
My credentials as the banker in a monopoly game are reliable as of today and I don't bother doing interest payments because it could be a zero sum game and E really is the sum in Sigma city (another M.I. High reference from the grouping at Mi9 but that's for the kids watching the telly-box and this scene is definitely something you'd want to Tell Father about when the spring is sprung!)
Learning on the job whilst in an accelerated gravity well can be fun and I'm sure that by now, some people have already come to my co-ordinates in their own ships to perform simulations of the multiversal principal at work, some solo, some open (depending on how fast they can move with all those barnacles stuck to their hulls)
Just heard a beep and can confirm that the six objects are automated mining extractors.
